A magnitude 5.7 earthquake rattled South Central Alaska this morning and FEMA has not shown up to help. Where is Obama's FEMA?

How about the wildlife that may have been hurt when the ground shook? Why hasn't Obama sent in his global warming experts to make sure things are still cold up there?

Oh yeah, he's probably busy playing basketball and text messaging his Chicago thug buddies, Bill Ayers and Rev.Wright.

Ummm...

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (Reuters) - A moderate 5.7-magnitude earthquake shook Anchorage, Alaska's largest city, on Saturday morning. The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake's epicenter was 161 miles southwest of Anchorage. There was no tsunami warning in effect, according to the West Coast and Alaska Tsunami Warning Center website. Magnitude 5 quakes can cause considerable damage, but there were no immediate reports of injury or damage.

Heeeeeeeeeeeere's your sign...

Never mind FEMA. Isn't Sarah Palin still Governor of Alaska? How did the rising star of the Republican Party respond to this?

Seattle got hit by a 6.5 magnitude quake and the worst that happened was some cracks in the bridge supports. It didn't even knock anything off the shelves at my parents' house.

A 5.7? You are acting this silly over a 5.7? Come on, a 5.7 in Alaska is nothing. Might wake you up if you are sleeping, heck my little girl slept thru a 6.0 while we were there.

And once again Kootr proves that he is obsessed with trivia and willing to look totally stupid in order to make a nonsensical point.

There was no damage here with that quake. No biggie.

And yes, the OP doesn't have a clue!
